[QUOTE="vwguru714, post: 423409, member: 18046"] I pulled my rig down to the Keys, about a 4 hour haul, a few months after I got her with no transom saver. I could see the 50HP motor bouncing around and swinging side to side even while resting on the "lock". When I dropped it in the water it wouldn't start. Diagnosis, no spark, ignition module failure. Now it was probably coincidence that my 20 year old module just gave up but I was convinced all that banging around led to its demise. I have since always used a transom saver if only for my own peace of mind. And I just have the cheapo square tube gimmick from Walmart. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
